Re: Housing FAQ

So my question is...how many floor plans are there? Are all the elf standard houses them same? etc...

Re: Housing FAQ

Ok...thanks...so the only reason to try and get a certain address is for vanity reasons...

From my limited time messing with it, seems like a great implementation of housing. Can't wait for it to go live.

That depends on the assumption that what was on the preview server was an initial base price that was later raised. It could have been lowered specifically for the Open House test and raised back up for all we know.

Re: Housing FAQ

When they are handing out 10 Gold to test I doubt they would waste the time to lower upkeep and then raise it again since doing so is pretty much a waste of time. You could buy a Tier 2, way your full upkeep and still have money left over to fully decorate with the items we had.

Re: Housing FAQ

Just to clarify, are the housing neighborhoods race restricted? Could my dwarf buy a house in the Shire? Because I've grown fond of those funny little people and it's where I do most of my cooking - a very important thing indeed!

Re: Housing FAQ

Ok, it says that you can only have one personal house per sever.....does that mean that even though I have 5 characters I can still only have one house. I have a hobbit, elf, man, and dwarf character. Will I be able to buy a house for each of them????

One house per server means exactly what is says. Only one of your characters on any given server can buy a house.

Re: Housing FAQ

The old upkeep prices were reasonable, these figures are too high to make housing enjoyable for a player like me. I guess the increase MAY be justified for guild housing, but not for T1 and T2 personal housing.

Also, I should be able to pay ahead of time for my fees as much as I want.

I believe they are supposed to, but it isn't working properly at the moment. (And no, your kinship house & personal house do not have to be in the same exact neighborhood, just the same racial type of neighborhood.)

Probably not, but after all: What's pragmatic about paying $10-15 a month (or a $200 one-time fee) to play a game?
